Ethereum Foundation member ladislaus.eth said Ethereum is pursuing a key architectural shift, moving block validation from re-executing every transaction to verifying zero-knowledge proofs. Under the L1-zkEVM 2026 roadmap, EIP-8025 (Optional Execution Proofs) would allow validators (zkAttesters) to confirm blocks by verifying cryptographic proofs without running a full execution client. The first L1-zkEVM workshop is scheduled for Feb. 11, 2026. https://t.co/ygD2hDKfLt ...
